Abstract. We present an algorithmic framework for integrating solution methods that is based on search, inference, and relaxation and their interactions. We show that the following...
We address the problem of inserting repeaters, selected from a library, at feasible locations in a placed and routed network to meet user-specified delay constraints. We use mini...
We present a system to recognize phrases based on perceptrons, and a global online learning algorithm to train them together. The recognition strategy applies learning in two laye...
A strategy for working with incomplete information is called competitive if it solves each problem instance at a cost not exceeding the cost of an optimal solution (with full info...
Emergence is a concept that is not easy to grasp, since it contradicts our idea of central control and planning. In this work, we use a swarm of robots as a tangible tool to visua...
